2010 Haiti earthquake

Aside from successfully addressing multiple determinants of recidivism, prison nurseries also vigilantly prevent the assorted damages of neonatal separations (Elmalak, 2015, p. 1089; see also Baradon et al., 2008; Borelli et al., 2009; Byrne et al., 2010; Clarke-Stewart & Parke, 2001; Colin & Low, 1991; Elmalak, 2015; Few-Demo & Arditti, 2013; Fritz & Whiteacre, 2016; Goshin & Byrne, 2009; Goshin et al., 2014; JBara, 2012; Vainik, 2008). In addition to ensuring better parenting skills and…

The reason behind the massive destruction in Haiti was due to the lack of infrastructure and structurally sound dwellings. This issue stems from three other issues and they are building codes, construction materials, and population density & urbanization. All of which are an effect of Haiti being a poverty stricken country (Inside Disaster: Haiti). Since Haiti is poverty stricken it lends to the issue of people building where they want and how they can. And according to Cletus Spring, director…

places or things? Well, that is the story of what I did before going to Haiti. Just knowing that you have ethnicity in your bloodline just made me want to engage into learning about the island and culture. The saying goes know your roots and where you come from. In America we constantly hear about other countries and Haiti is one of them especially after the Earthquake that kills and injured thousands of people. Since then Haiti has been doing its best to rebuild up the country. Let the…

January of 1994, a 6.7 magnitude earthquake hit the San Fernando valley in Los Angelas, CA. In January of 2010 a 7 magnitude earthquake hit 15 miles south of the city of Port-au-Prince Haiti. Both earthquakes occurred in extremely population dense areas. Both were similar in strength. However, while the Haitian earthquake killed close to 300,000 people by some accounts, the Northridge Earthquake killed 57. While some argue the actual death toll to be as low as 84,000 in Haiti, that is still in…

Six years ago, the country of Haiti was high by earthquake that killed thousands. The deaths occurred due to lack of infrastructure and warning of the earthquake and its 59 aftershocks. This occurred due to a transform movement between the Caribbean and North American plates ("Magnitude 7.0 - HAITI REGION", n.d.). If there had been more warning of this earthquake, potentially thousands of lives could have been saved. There are predictions based on historical earthquakes that can help scientists…

different about things around them. In the year of 2010 an earthquake happened in Haiti and I am proud to say that I am a survivor but when the tragedy occurred all the reporters started talking and announcing how bad the country got and how we got poor. I’m not saying it’s false but every country has a poor side. The United States isn’t rich all over the place; they have some bad parts also called the ghetto. When many Americans hear the word “Haiti,” many negative things will come to mind:…

January 12, 2010, Haiti was impacted by a strong earthquake of a magnitude of 7.0. This earthquake was the strongest this nation had faced in 200 years, leaving more than 200,000 people dead, and over 895,000 people homeless. Haiti was already considered as one of the poorest countries, and with the impact of the earthquake, most of the limited amount of riches the country had, were loss. After this tragedy happened, a lot of people started making donations to aid the people of Haiti. One of…

Welcome to the beautiful tropical island of Haiti. It is true that there is poverty in the country also. I believe that when visiting a different country of any kind you should always, make sure you experience their culture, food, and atmosphere. This country is a great country to visit despite anything that other people have to say or post on the internet. Haiti kindled a flame in our hearts that burned brightly. Just landed at the airport in Port-Au-Prince, Haiti, we were greeted by two…

The country of Haiti is located in between the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. Its island neighbor is the Dominican Republic. The terrain is mostly rugged and mountainous. Many have described the appearance of the land as a wrinkled brown. In the past, Haiti was covered in beautiful forests and lush green foliage, but today it is mostly barren. Its beaches are spectacular, sporting white sands and crystal blue waters. The people of Haiti are just as vibrant, always loud and joyful. The…

mind and comes home with a disorder. A little girl is raped, and now she must live in a constant fear of men and she goes through all the effects of rape. Every case of PTSD is sad and deserves help, for example the issues Haiti is having right now. In 2010, Haiti had an earthquake that killed over 300,00 people and left over a million people homeless. A group teamed together and started the project called “Relief for the Spirit”, and their job was to run a therapy group to teach coping…
